Si Como No is a family-friendly resort of 54 rooms, each with a private balcony, spread over terraced forest that the hotel describes as protected land of about 10 acres. Fodor's counts nine buildings and describes the resort as sustainable. The hotel lists three places to eat, a regional restaurant called Claro Que Sí, a jungle grill and a pool bar, and a spa, and it also has a private movie theater, a children's pool with a slide and an adults-only area. In other words, it is a resort for families who want more than a room.

The hotel gives its own travel times: roughly three hours by car from SJO, 25 minutes from the Quepos airstrip and ten minutes from Manuel Antonio National Park. Fodor's puts the resort about 3 km from the beach and mentions a free scheduled shuttle, although the hotel's own page does not confirm it, so ask when you book. For arrival, the useful fact is that the grounds are on a hillside, with the front desk at the road and rooms spread at different levels.

Manuel Antonio is a single fare zone in our table. The same price applies to the other hotels on the road to the park, and the transfer ends at the resort's entrance. If you are travelling as a family with strollers or car seats, tell us when you book and we will plan the vehicle.
